chad5871 Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 No topping off today! Problems with a crane.
kingsdominionlvr Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Topping off is delayed. No estimate at this time... Â On top of that, considering this week is Thanksgiving, it could be a while before we see I305 topped off.
Homeboy23 Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 ^ Considering there is a good chance of rain for the next couple of days right before Thanksgiving.
Swiminn6 Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 They have the spot lights on! Do you think they will cap it off tonight?
Swiminn6 Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 The top will be capped off tonight!!! From Kings Dominion Twitter: Â "KingsDominionVA Â The topping off will commence tonight! It will be a late night! Hope the rains hold off..." Â Sweet!
Blythy Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 http://twitpic.com/qkyxo  piece one going up.
Swiminn6 Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 http://twitpic.com/qlbo4 Â There putting it up as we speak!

atem122 Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 ^Not quite... I'm amazed the construction crew is working at 1 in the morning
vacoaster Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 ^Not quite... I'm amazed the construction crew is working at 1 in the morning  Yeah this is dedication. Its supposed to rain and with the holiday. I guess KD was not going to miss this milestone in their construction schedule
technfxrick Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 It also might of had something to do with the cost/ time constraints on the Crane, they may of needed the Crane for another job, or it was just cheaper to pay the overtime than to pay for another weeks rental on the crane.
alpengeist04 Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Congrats to Kings Dominion on the topping off. ...It's only down hill from here.
technfxrick Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Yeah i'm sure it had something to do with the crane, because if you look at the webcam now, the crane is gone.
bpmitchell Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 I have a time lapse video currently in editing, hoping to get it up later today. I had a little topping off get together with a friend of mine last night so I will post some pix of that too, it doesn't get any better than that.
Blythy Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 some photos of the topping off added to here http://www.kdfansite.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=97 Â Â Bruce willis gets everywhere these days. http://www.kdfansite.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=97&pos=43
kingsdominionlvr Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 I am both excited and relieved to see it topped off. Hopefully, I can take a drive down I-95 to see this for myself sometime this week/weekend.
Coaster Cow Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Hells yes! Â It looks great, can't wait till they get some cars going around the track!
Mochtroid Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 This thing is BEAUTIFUL. I must ride sometime.
netdvn Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 HOLY CARP! Â The huge lift structure looks BEAUTIFUL! I can't wait to head up to KD next year to ride that thing. Â Dan "That wasn't a typo"
MARK Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 I live on the other side of the world so at 11 pm I came across this early morning webcam pic! Pretty cool.... Through the fog!
Swiminn6 Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Wow that looks stunning! That should be sent in to Kings Dominion!
coasterdude2011 Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 This seriously might be one of the coolest looking coasters ever. It looks great so far and I hope I get a shot to ride it next year. That picture looks amazing though.
